Day: December 15, 2021

Almost free

I have one medical deferred final yet to grade. Legs: kind of dead. Back: much better but still some tenderness.

Today; pull ups: 40 singles, nice set of 10, 2 sets of 5 chins.
Push ups: 30 sissy, 25 feet elevated, 20 feet elevated, 10, 10 deficit, 10 normal.

Deadlifts: 10 x 134, 10 x 184, 10 x 224, 10 x 240 (slightly too much) which is a rep PR.

bike: 32 minutes, plus some rehab; some “stand on one leg”.

COVID: we are in hot water here. Last week: positivity was 8.6 percent and that appears to be heading up, up, up.

Toward the end of finals

Yeah, COVID is spiking where I live and indoor masking is too low. Warm up the ventilators.

I do outdoor stuff but mask when around people or when indoor; so many are just not that careful. I don’t advocate being a hermit but a mask (plus being vaccinated and boosted) isn’t that much to ask.

Workout notes:

Monday: pull ups (got 3 sets of 10, several of 5 to get 60; these were a chore), push ups: 30 sissy, “walk 10”, 20 feel elevated and 10 for “show”

then indoor: shoulder press: 10 x 86, 91, 91 (getting back to it)

row: 3 sets of 10 x 60 single arm

curls: 3 sets of 10

Also: rehab, banded walks, etc.

Today; yoga, very rough 3 mile walk (3.3)

Frankly, the walk hurt at times: .7 miles, 1.0, 1.6, 2.0, 2.75, 3.0
